How do I improve this code?

            while h['Response'] == 'False' and j < 100:
                h = self.get_html(year)
                print('Tentanto %d vezes' % j)

            ''' se "year" não for nulo, transforma em inteiro '''
            if "–" in h['Year']:
                h['Year'] = year
            # salva
            self.save(h['Title'], h['Year'], h['Released'], h['Director'], h['Actors'],
                      h['Poster'], h['imdbRating'], h['imdbVotes'], h['imdbID'])
            print(i + 1, h['Year'], h['Title'], h['Released'], h['Director'],
                  h['Actors'], h['Poster'], h['imdbRating'], h['imdbVotes'], h['imdbID'])

        # print('Foram salvos %d filmes' % movies)

For example, 

def save(self, title, year, released, director, actors, poster, imdbRating, imdbVotes, imdbID):

Enter only with an argument dictionary. 

title=title,
year=year,
released=released,
director=director,
actors=actors,
poster=poster,
imdbRating=imdbRating,
imdbVotes=imdbVotes,
imdbID=imdbID,

Can you turn it into something smaller, maybe a dictionary. 

self.save(h['Title'], h['Year'], h['Released'], h['Director'], h['Actors'],
          h['Poster'], h['imdbRating'], h['imdbVotes'], h['imdbID'])

Could it also be optimized?

If the problem is the input of arguments, just use the ** operator, without touching anything in your code: 

h = {
    "title":"foo",
    "year":2015,
    ...
    "imdbID":12345,
}

self.save(**h)
# é o mesmo que
self.save(h["title"], h["year"], ..., h["imdbID"])

For you to use this way, it is important that the h dictionary has the same number and names of all parameters. If you want some parameters to be optional, you can declare them with a default value, so missing it will not cause problems: 

def save(self, title, year, released=False, director, actors, poster, imdbRating, imdbVotes, imdbID):
    ...

self.save(**h) # Mesmo que o anterior
del h["released"]
self.save(**h) # Ainda funciona; released é recebido como False

Conversely, if you want to simplify receiving the parameters, and still allow the function to be called with positional arguments, you can use the * and ** operators in the function definition (usually called *args and% with%). But you already know how to use it, so I see you already have it in your code.

Finally, you can use both: get the parameters in a dictionary, using **kwargs , then pass that dictionary to ** also using Movie.objects.create : 

def save(self, **kwargs):
    ''' transforma "imdbVotes" em numero inteiro '''
    if kwargs["imdbVotes"] == "'N/A'":
        kwargs["imdbVotes"] = 0
    else:
        kwargs["imdbVotes"] = kwargs["imdbVotes"].replace(',', '')
    try:
        ''' Salva os dados '''
        Movie.objects.create(**kwargs)

And no ** : 

# salva
self.save(**h)

P.S. If the parameters of your function are positional and named, as in your example, you can also call them using a list or tuple: 

h = ("foo", 2015, ..., 12345)
self.save(*h) # title recebe "foo", year recebe 2015, etc
